  • DD is still sleeping (10 am!) she doesn’t nap, although she is only 2 so I am just enjoying it. So far I’ve had my breakfast, coffee, taken a shower and done no housework. In a few months I’ll never have this kind of downtime (at least for the foreseeable future!).
  • I've had more real coffee, pastries and bacon on vacation over the last week than I have this entire pregnancy.

    I take prenatals only when I remember to take them. I haven’t taken them since Monday yet during the appt today, I told my OBGYN I take it daily....
    Same, except my OB doesn’t ask about vitamins. I try to take them on the days I eat like crap but I’ve always been terrible at taking vitamins. 
  • I ate boxed Mac and cheese and chicken nuggets for lunch and I don’t even have kids I was feeding, just made it for myself. It was so good though!!

    I was so disappointed when DD didn’t show love towards mac and cheese & nuggets. We even got her dino nuggets from Costco and DH & I only eat them. Glad you enjoyed it!!!
  • I have to drive 3 hrs to and 3 hrs from Virginia tomorrow for my niece/goddaughters bday party.  I have been searching for an excuse not to go bc I just don't want to deal with people.  I've run out of ideas and think I'm gonna have to give in so now I'm praying DSs soccer practice beforehand is at least cancelled.
  • I decided not to go out to eat today and eat at work (I work at a central kitchen for a school district so they provide free breakfast and lunch). My thought process was I wouldn’t be eating as many calories... I was wrong, not only did I have a chicken sandwich with two vegetables sides the lead cook asked me if I wanted a piece of lasagna too and proceeded to give me a double portion.... I ate it all
  • @sfgiantsgamerbabe DS naps give DH and I time to get things done around the house and nap if we are feeling run down after a long week. I totally agree that a well rested baby/toddler makes for a happy baby/toddler. To take it a step further, when DS is well rested and happy, DH and I are happy. The house runs better. 
  • I’m on team nap over anything else because DD hit two and her tantrums on days without naps at daycare are on a whole another level. It’s like once she starts screaming/crying, there is no stop button no matter what. The whole respectful parenting/Janet Lansbury thing is sooo much harder than it sounds!!! Weekends are awesome when DD is a happy baby. We make sure we go out 9-12 then put her down for a nap 12-3 or 1-4 (she naps so hard on wknds). We’ll take it.

    I plan on making the baby follow DD’s routine, at least for awhile, which means being out of the house for morning naps. DD is impossible if she doesn’t get her outside physical activity so it’s a big priority for me. It affects her more than whether she gets a nap. Every time we stay home for a whole day she becomes a defiant tornado that doesn't sleep. I also have to interact with adults for my own mental health.

    That’s what I did with my second and it worked out great. I would take the kids out to do things in the morning and the baby would nap in the car or stroller or carrier or wherever. Then after lunch he would take a big long nap in his crib. He probably dropped his morning nap earlier than most, but his afternoon nap is still so long and good at almost 2. I hope it works well for you too!
  • @AliKay20 yessss I love Wegmans sheet cake. I’m glad I saw this after I was already there for my weekly shopping today or I would be adding that to my list for sure!!  And I definitely would also have a hard time sharing. 
  • DS has been having GI issues and has to have a clean out today so I just got done bribing him with toys if he does it without complaining just to make my life easier.
